LET’S WATCH AND DISCUSS!

LOWER ADVANCED / ADVANCED LEVEL

Давайте посмотрим и обсудим!

This course is designed to help lower advanced and advanced-level students to become as fluent as possible in Russian through watching and discussing TV shows, interviews, documentaries and video blogs. Thanks to its growing popularity, the course now has three “seasons” each consisting of 30 lessons. You’ll improve your command of topic-related vocabulary and ability to vary your style according to the situation. You’ll practice your linguistic skills through a variety of engaging activities (debates, games, interviews etc.). Your cultural awareness will be further developed. For more information please see the course description.

LIVING GRAMMAR

LOWER ADVANCED / ADVANCED LEVEL

Живая грамматика

For this course I selected grammar points that most learners of Russian find challenging (i.e. verbs of motion, verbs and prepositions with different cases, verb aspect, participles). You will see them in action in both spoken and written language. The course combines all core skills: speaking, reading, listening and writing. It will enable you to expand vocabulary in popular subjects, increase fluency and improve listening skills. Each material comes with a glossary and audio recordings. This course is recommended to those who wish to take an advanced Russian course in the future. For more information please see course description.
